In a viral video, creator Victoria Lyn shared what is required to get this look. So, let's get to know the stepwise guide to achieve mermaid eyes look:
Gather Your Makeup Supplies Before you start, make sure you have the following makeup items ready:
Liquid shimmery eyeshadow
Eyeliner (black or a vibrant colour)
Mascara
Eye primer
Makeup brushes
Highlighter
The first thing, you need to do is apply primer and concealer on your eyelids.
After applying a sticky primer and concealer, you're ready to work on the eyeliner.
Choose a Brown Eyeliner:
Begin by selecting a brown eyeliner pen. This offers better precision than using an eyeshadow line, making it easier for you to create the desired eyeliner shape.
Start with a Soft Wing:
Use the brown eyeliner pen to create a very soft eyeliner wing. This wing should be subtle and not too bold. Start from the outer corner of your eye and draw a thin line that slightly flicks upwards at the outer edge.
Use liquid shimmery eyeshadow:
A very crucial step to achieving mermaid eyes is liquid shimmery eyeshadow that will help you give that shiny wet look. Opt for Waterproof Liner:
Using a waterproof eyeliner for this step:
A waterproof liner not only adds longevity to your makeup but also helps protect against the elements. This is particularly important as we transition from summer to autumn when weather conditions can vary.
